I could not try the sleeve till the swelling had gone down. Now that I have tried it, I realize I should have gone for medium size. The sleeve is of good quality and I can still wear it up to my knee - this helps with the pain in the back of my leg (calf), so not a wasted purchase. I would recommend it to anyone with the added provisio that if your measurement falls just within the small size, go for the medium size.

Put them in the freezer first! Bit of a shock to the system but worked well. Just using as is for now - still cooling and easing. I use them when resting on the sofa- they really are beneficial.

The compression sleeve for knee pain is very good. I’ve worn it most days for a week and was able to do without it all day today. My aim is to strengthen my thigh muscles. I can now do the exercises without pain. I’ll use the knee sleeve again when there is another flare up

Oh my, these are instant relief, no bulky ice packs strapped to your knee. Slipped it on felt fantastic. Cooling my knee. Be great to take on holiday for knee swelling on plane. Thank you.

I bought these after using the wrist ones. They feel so much nicer than normal knee supports. They are cool enough for me without putting them in the freezer. I did try them in the freezer for a short time but found them too cold. They do help with my pain

Ideal for me after my total knee replacement, stay on well and comfy

It is good for relieving aching and pain but it feels quite tight, even the larger size is quite a small fit.

I use it more for support which,while not curing my knee problem, makes walking a bit easier so really pleased with it.

Well it arrived quickly the very morning I was having a flair up so magical relief from agony.
Was cold on arrival and stayed that way for 12 hrs.
Then I put it a lot of printing and training and in the freezer for a short while .
As with other products it is rather expensive!!
The only downside is the seam inside which rubs rather, on the back of the knee where skin is quite tender.

Excellent product. I wear it every day. I keep it in the fridge overnight , so very soothing when I first put it on. Keeps the swelling down around my knee. I wear it all day as you don’t know you’ve got it on. Worth every penny.
